Miami vs. Virginia Tech Predictions

No. 23 Miami dropped two of its last three games, most recently falling to Pittsburgh on Saturday. However, the Hurricanes have been much better at home this season, boasting a perfect 11-0 record in that regard.

Virginia Tech appears to be trending in the right direction after beating Duke and Syracuse last week. Take note that both of those victories came at home, and the Hokies haven’t been great on the road this season. In fact, Virginia Tech is 0-6 ATS on the road this season.

This appears to be a strong bounce-back spot for the Hurricanes, and the spread is relatively short due to the recent performances of these teams. You can take advantage of that while siding with Miami -3.5 on Tuesday.
